The Copley Collection: The Inspiration

Copley, often synonymous with the city of Boston and all that it represents, has provided a fitting foundation for inspiring a beautiful, new collection from Hearts On Fire Designer Ilaria Lanzoni.

When Italian native Ilaria moved to Boston from Europe in early 2012, she was immediately enamored by the sights and sounds of Hearts On Fire’s hometown. Walking through the tiny cobblestone streets of Beacon Hill and the Back Bay, and taking in the historical and majestic features of the city’s terraces and iron gates, Ilaria was reminded of both the beauty and artistic features of old world Europe that she knew and loved so much.

The Copley Collection, the result of this inspiration, brings to life the beauty and artistry of the streets and buildings of Boston. With John Copley also being known as America’s First Great Portrait Artist, it only seemed fitting to make the Copley Collection one of Ilaria’s first Hearts On Fire Collections, featuring wearable pieces of art inspired by the city of Boston.

As Hearts On Fire’s first ever fashion-forward diamond jewelry collection that features bold metal colors, including yellow and rose, and less diamond intensive designs that portray the beautiful metalwork of Ilaria’s designs, the Copley Collection’s unique designs have quickly made an impact on people around the world.
